    GP1 for me - Porsche is great but I can't deal with the 996 - 993 or 997 would be definitely Porsche.

    If I had to pick the MINI I like best it would be a GP-1 for sure. Given the choice offered it lost. Yes I know you are a car guy as many here are. :)

    That would be a tough decision if the classic is a RH drive "S".

    Ohhhh...That's another tossup. I'd probably take the GP-1, but I may have regrets later.

    *EDIT--picture sized fixed, comment removed, it's no longer funny. It probably wasn't in the first place anyway.

    GP while I'd love to have a classic I don't want it to be my only car, and that is part of the game right!!

    Damn.......that's a tough one.

    As a daily I would go with the classic Mini. May need a bit more maintenance, but for me it would be worth a few more "shop" days.

    The GP would be much easier to live with, but it's got to be the Mini Cooper S. I'd love it! :cool:

    As a car to lust for the Classic is the bees knees but as a car to drive daily on freeways or to be stuck in traffic on a hot summer day I gots to pick the GP.

    It would be easy for me to live with. On those days where I'd have to drive in snow or in tough traffic I'd be using Babs clubman. :D

    GP. I'm definitely not the right build for a classic as a daily.

    Qualifier...."the classic is properly and thoroughly restored, red S model" I would chose the Classic. Like Savvy, my current body configuration would make it difficult but also force me to lose a bunch of weight.
